The Hilt Bentrock Vineyard Chardonnay, Sta Rita Hills, USA 2020

Seductive and inviting nose that is simultaneously alluring and elusive. Truffle honey, white raspberry, brioche and grilled peach. Sophisticated and mysterious. Perfumed white flower, but solid yellow and gold on the palate. Still tight and young at this stage, but already blooming in the glass. Fascinating dances between density and tension and then fruit and freshness. The type of wine that demands attention in the glass. Finish is full of sunshine and cold wind. A truly textural and unforgettable experience.
